About the Book

Whereas the first five volumes of the Handbook are essentially dedicated to the neuropsychology of adulthood and aging, Volumes 6 and 7 deal with child neuropsychology. They provide information on the anatomy of brain development and some of its pathologies, specialization and plasticity, developmental and acquired neuropsycholgy, and the limits of plasticity in the immature brain. Handedness, and the relationship of developmental learning disorders and cerebral dominance are widely discussed. Volume 6 focusses on the immature brain, structural, functional, and behavioral assessment, mental deficiency and disorders of sensorimotor functions. The book will keep all scientists working in the field of neuropsychology abreast of recent developments, and points to future paths to be explored in this rapidly expanding area.
